We piled into our friends' giant SUV and left our rural"ish" town to head to Baltimore for parallel parking adventures and dinner with friends. There were album art photo shoots and break dancing and lasagna and lists of loves/hates and bachelorette party weekend planning. Earlier in the week Gus said, "Lots of your friends seems like family," and as "Uncle" Steve drove us all home Saturday I sure was feeling grateful for our friend family.

This boy- all cheeks and thighs and rolls for days. This boy who sleeps in the arms of his family and will not be woken. This boy who has discovered smiles and talking and who loves his mama, this boy was just what this family wanted. Thanks for a good start. Happy two month birthday, Baby Arlo.

This weekend we waterpark adventured. We boggy boarded on eternal waves. We slipped and slid down slides over every color. We pulled ourselves across lily pads. We swam in wave pools, snuck into hot tubs, and played hide and seek once most everyone else had abandoned the premises. We slept and slept and slept, well one of us did at least.
